What up everyone! This topic was voted on by you all over on my RUclips community page! What do you think? Will IZ*ONE resign? And if not where do you think the members will go??
I hope they continue because I think one of the members won't debut for another 2 years if they disband. Like Somi she waited 3 years until she changed copanys and debuted.
I don’t know why wizones even want izone to be perm. yall knew what you guys got into when stanning a produce 101 group. They were always supposed to disband and never supposed to be perm. It has nothing to do with the success of IZONE because if that were the case they would already be a permanent group, it all comes down to the company’s wanting their idols back because keeping them as Izone doesn’t help their respective labels AT ALL. Bottom line their labels want money and them staying as Izone doesn’t help them. Stop saying “Izone Permanent!!!!!” because you sound delu it’s NEVER gonna happen.
Chaeyeon is like the Chungha of Iz*one, she's too talented so it's not okay to debut her with a group again. She's perfect to be a talented because my gurl can slay every aspect of the word 'talent'
She would kinda be overshadowed as a soloist she will be competing with way more popular ggs and boy groups and soloist like sunmi,hyuna,chungha too me she wlill definitely be better in a group
I think her company is preparing her debut as a leader of a gg and I actually read somewhere that it was supposed to be in the first half of this year?? So I'm surprised they are talking about this contract
sadly it will always effect them. wizones wont be able to keep up with all 12 members and some members will be more popular than others. And some members will end up outshining their other new group members and will have alot of solo stans. its not a produce curse it is just what happens when you try something like this out.
I know that Chaeyeon got our back. She has many international fans and that would help her group or when she goes solo. However I don’t know how popular she is in Korea and I’m afraid she won’t be successful
@KEY i think in wannaone, only daniel (and maybe minhyun) is doing well. Besides only daehwi minhyun and jinyoung is in a group postdisbandment so your point is invalid. Also its hard to compare boy groups to gg since bg are naturally more popular and wellliked by fans and the public.
@KEY keep in mind that ioi was just as big as izone *in their times* if not bigger (since kpop was smaller back then and they were the first produce group). Somi was literally the most popular female idol back then n they also had huge fanbase. However, after they went back to their respective groups and companies postdisbandment, they immediately lost their popularity. They still had some hype but once they did not maintain the standards (only chungha did), their hype just started fading and even the solo stans and ex-ioi fans did not fully support every member. The same thing happen for wannaone. This shows that most of the fans would only support them when theyre in the group. So what makes you think it wouldnt happen to izone? Plus, the individual popularity in izone is also very divided. The most popular being wonyoung/sakura (plus maybe the jline too since they have their own japanese fanbase) while the rest of the members arent really popular individually.
This is very accurate. Yujin and Wonyoung debuted in IVE and they already have 14 wins as far as I watched. I'm addicted to their song "Eleven". I like Wonyoung but Yujin is my bias.
It's okay, anything is good. Even one more year with Iz*one would be fine. Just do something. Anything. I'm fine with absolutely ANYTHING that has "contact extension" written on it 😭😭😭 I'm just not ready for them to disband yet. I'm not ready-
@@yerinbaekscandlelight At least with an extension they might get the chance to see their fans in a live concert before they disband. Seeing them end without a proper farewell hurts even more :(
Agreed, if they really are going to disband as the way it should be in the next month or two, imo it probably wouldn't be fair for the members tho. The 3 months of hiatus and now COVID (and the virus is still ongoing, plus they say there's a new type of it from the UK). Ofc some will say "But what if the hiatus and the Covid weren't here in the first place, u sure u wanna stick to them on getting contract extension?" Well, maybe. But look on the reality now, what's happening? The fact that those two awful things has happened and there is still one is still happening rn and we won't even know when will it end... I'll also be grateful if they could just at least give them a year. Just one single year for them being together, and give us a more proper farewell... And also, maybe they could finish up the 'One' trilogy so everything can end up well 😔😔
Wait no pain- I don't want iz*gone like I wanna buy merch but I don't want them to disband cuz they are my ults and I don't want pain LMAO Edit: Pain. Only pain.
i’m literally still in the kpop fandom bc of them, if they disband and i don’t find a another girl group to fill the izone shaped hole in my heart, i’m done w this fandom lmao
Coming back to this video again in 2023 , so many predictions came true and some didn't !! Eunbi - Solo Artist Sakura & Chaewon - Lessserafim Yujin & Wonyoung - Ive Yuri - Solo Artist/Actress Yena - Solo Artist/Actress Hyewon - Actress/RUclipsr Minju - Actress Chaeyeon - Solo Artist Nako - Graduated from HKT48 and now is an actress Hitomi - AKB48
Idk but Wonyoung will probably be the it girl of the next generation, she has everything, talent, visuals, skills and still very young too, her future screams success.
I don't think she will changed to big3 her skills not that good to impress big3 company..if her skills as good as chungha and somi i do think she fit in big3 company.. But i think she will do damn well in modelling and stayed in starship since she's pretty..
@@jezzaxenialagura1917 it will extremely hard for Yena and any Izone member to go solo, they are not that known individually for general public, Yena also bounce better in a group, i totally don't see her solo
Akb & hkt are popular in Japan so i feel like J-line won't have a problem for their future. Yena's agency has everglow they won a music show once they would be okay. For other members i don't really know if they'll continue as idol or go to acting and modelling career.
@@yazyaz2969 AKB is a sinking ship though. They were already on the decline once all the old popular idols started graduating and their popularity took a huge hit lately with that one scandal in 2019. And for Hitomi, she was never that popular in AKB/Team 8 to begin with. She might not have much of a future back in AKB but we'll see.
@@ianaillaria6820 omg can relate. I have known them since the lver era. And when I saw their performance and heard their song at MAMA2020, I immediately became a wizone. But it hurt a lot to find out that their contract would end this year :(
@@ianaillaria6820 same. I'm so mad at myself. I knew about produce 48 going on, I knew about their debut, I would see their name everywhere and them performing in award shows for almost two years but I never gave it a chance till recently when I decided to watch produce 48 out of the blue and became a wizone. I regret it so much.
I feel like Preferably: Eunbi: a soloist/model Hyewon: Actress/Model Yena: Group member Chaeyeon: Group member/ Then later a soloist... Perhaps Yuri: Group member/Soloist Chaewon: Group member Minju: Actress/Model Yujin: Group member Wonyoung: Group member Sakura, hitomi and nako: Japanese activities.
Randy William Sakura, and Nako is a member of a japanese girl group called HKT48 while Hitomi is a member of AKB48. After iz*one disband they will go back to japan and continue being idol their. Ofcourse it’s called "Japanese activities" since they will continue their career in japan.
I swear man, if they go back to their respective companies and debuts them, and then not manage them well and disbands them in the end like Pristin... IM ABOUT TO THROW EGGS AT THE COMPANIES
Literally, Starship Entertainment is probably the only company out of all the others ones that has the highest chances to succeed if they play their cards right and treat their idols well.
@@j.r.2674 Maybe, although the company has a messy past about mistreating their idols and such.. And i really hope they don't just focus on their boy groups. But other than that, Starship has gold in their hands, it's up to them if they're going to use that to their success, i really hope they do.
@@Craashy Yes, they do have quite the past of not testing their idols the best, they improved in regards to treating their idols, they are really good in regards to most things, they just aren’t the best at promoting their groups and artists properly though, they use the same format for every groups and it is a bit outdated. Monsta X has really been carrying their company for a while, and seeing how successful Iz*one are and the members in general are, I’m pretty sure they’ll want to be a lot of focus and attention into a new girl group, seeing how they have two of the most well-known members in Iz*one. Wonyoung and Yujin are essentially the future of their label, Starship has some good variety and groups, but I don’t really think WJSN (their current girl group) will ever be extremely successful and they’ve been around for nearly 5 years, their new boy group Cravity is doing well but it might take a while for them to pop off, Monsta X are pretty much a senior group, but their probably the only group that really has a sustained and solid fanbase. For now, I think their main focus is Monsta X, but I’m pretty sure they’ll be putting a lot of effort into making a successful girl group, that is essential for them to succeed as a company, (also I just would want Yujin and Wonyoung to succeed in a good environment in general). I hope Starship play their cards right, they have everything they need to do so, it could even help them become more of a mainstream company in the future, there is so much potential.
It literally scares me to think about their future... because I want the best for all the members and I know they have the talent and potential to succeed after izone, but sadly they could also easily end up forgotten due to bad management from their companies... let’s wish them the best and support them in whichever endeavors they take.
Honestly, I feel that a company having no money is just as scary as having bad management... they often come hand in hand as well. And as much as it pains me, when I look at it objectively, it would be nearly impossible for some of izone's members to bring in enough money to keep their respective companies afloat, regardless of management decisions. I do hope they find a way, though :(
each of them will reach sucess if the company make the right choice and promote them well. For example, if Minju and Hyewon debut with a group they will probably flop but if Minju be an actress/model and Hyewon an actress/model/youtuber they will for sure suceed.
@@ggstan2439 I agree, choosing the correct path is essential, and Minju and hyewon’s best option is to go the acting/modeling route, but I hope Minju also keeps writing/arranging songs, it’d be sad for her if she leaves behind her passion for music):
@@ggstan2439 I don’t think 8D Creative will waste Hyewon potentials for being an idol imo. Most Real Wiz*One will definitely support her group for sure if that ever happen lol.
UPDATE: IZ*ONE will disband in April, Mnet already confirms the news The members are expected to return to their respective agencies after disbanding and continue their activities separately
Personally I've always said this to project groups, there was always supposed to be a quick end. It was never meant to last. And its not like they'll be back to strangers after this is all over. They'll still be the same people and at least some of them will still continue to be great friends. Just because the group ends, it doesn't mean that they're nothing to each other, its just the end. If some of them or all of them, decide to not continue or fight to be a permanent group, it doesn't mean that iz*one meant nothing to them, it's just the end. Their moments are captured online and will be kept there forever. Even if some of them won't continue to be friends after this is all over, they still have the memories that they share. Every day for 2 years, they'll still be there. The entire project group wasn't just for nothing, it gave them an experience that no one else would have ever experienced before and ever again. Ends are always bittersweet, but it's just an end. They're still be alive and well even after iz*one disbands. They'll still be here, just with new beginnings. So if you truly love them, you'd realize that the girl's feelings is what's most important. Even if that includes the end of iz*one.
@@ncity. try to face the reality bruh i know its so hard like me accept the reality that momoland gonna disband this april.reality sometimes gonna be really" hurt but that reality and dont hold up your tears just let it go and u will feel better
As an Everglow Ult myself, FOREVERS knew since the beginning of EVERGLOWS debut that it would be a possibility that Yena would join the group after Iz*one. Most forevers are excepting of this possibility, but regardless of whether she does or doesn't we will support her wherever she may go 😀
I think that's why they didn't comebacked in 2021. Maybe they are thinking that will Yena join the group or not. Also maybe they're in discussion with Yena.
i won’t be surprised of hyewon enters the modeling industry - i mean, she has the visuals to do it. i think 8D Creative will try to place her in the modeling industry to earn some cash all while planning on what do with her future. i can also see hyewon becoming a streamer. imagine hyewon becoming a mukbang streamer - since 8D Creative started out as a food and drink company and her love for food- or a gaming streamer, since she loves games as well. i’m curious about her the most.
About Sakura. She has 3 ways to go: 1. Graduate and become an actress. 2. Top position in AKS and management later. 3. Graduate and stay in Korea (if she gets an invitation to any company considering her being the most popular member worldwide). But recently she hasn’t stated that she’ll definitely come back to Japan (only allkpop and koreaboo spread such rumors).
I have to agree with these My thoughts: 1. Sashi's successor on being the queen of HKT 2. Graduates and take a break on entertainment industry 3. Graduates and be either actress or voice actress 4. Sign WM ent to join Chaeyeon in Ggumnamu
@@stfujeongyeonistheloveofmy9763 I'd understand Sakura. The industry is harsh and once you've been in it and seen it all, you're just tired of it, ig...
Don't be sad they are disbanding. You know what you signed up for, they are a temporary group and you should have been ready that this would happen. It's just the start for them. Be happy they are going to the next step. Don't act like this is the end, it's the beginning. if you are a true wiz*one, you would continue to support them no matter where they go. Produce curse happens because majority of the fans turn out to be fake and don't continue to support them wherever they go. Produce curse happens because of you yourself. Let's not make that happen this time but clearly it's already happening. stop trashtalking about where they are going, do you realize you are already ruining your favs' reputation and popularity? You don't deserve to be called a fan. They will continue to gain more popularity if all wiz*ones abide to their promise when they signed up.
True, but look at the members of IOI and WANNAONE. Most of the members have failed as new team or solo, and not appearing on TV anymore. I don't want that happen to IZone members.
@@Foxy61000 not disagreeing with your statement. that’s one of the reasons why I don’t think you should debut as a kpop idol before graduating high school. if a group disbands, or someone wants to pursue a different career, wouldn’t it make life really complicated if you leave high school early to debut as an idol? just my honest two cents. I hope things will be okay for wonyoung and everyone else ofc!
Actually WM entertainment had a group set to debut before Produce48 starts. It was called "Ggumnamu" a 6 members group and Chaeyeon was one of the members. And now they are supposed to debut this year after IZONE disband. Hope they will be successful cuz I love Chaeyeon she is so talented and works so hard for it.
WM is good company,, chaeyeon right join WM.. Back then OMG not populer like nowdats, but WM not give up, give choice promotion after promotion as group or individual, and look now OMG one of pop gg korea
@So What i think bacground sakura is very big in japan, and the contract i think need much money for WM, just for one person.. So i think very small chance sakura join WM..
@So What I don't know if you guys saw the news that sakura is going to join Big Hit entertainment after IZONE disband in April she will sign a contract soon for a upcoming girl group that Big Hit is planning to debut in the next years.
I think, if Iz*one could be permanent, they would be the next nation’s girlgroup Edit: lmao, chill in the comments, i said IF they could be permanent, not that they must. Instead of fighting let’s enjoy the time we have left with them and support them in their future projects 💜
they will not become permanent. Ppl need to understand. Fan's who keep repeating that they don't want Izone to disband are the same one who caused the previous produce's group to flop. Becauseof how obsess they were with the full group, they refused to support and basically ignored each girl after the group disbanded. SO just accept that they won't be around for long and support them after.
@@MM-kj8os Imagine you're Once and suddenly Twice need to disband. Will you accept when people give exact answer like you've done??Honest talk,I don't think you would. And it's not wrong for people to say that they don't want IZ*ONE to disband since we're stanning them. Who would want to give up just like that huh??And why don't you say the exact things to Ahgase when Got7 want to disband,Wannable and even Army??Strange
@@cutethittipat628 But it's just common sense that they will disband. They are a project group and unfortunately project groups disband at some point. You might not want them to disband but they eventually will. The best you can do as a fan is support the girls while they are still together and support them when they go their separate ways. Holding onto the idea that Iz*one won't disband is unfortunately unrealistic.
@@shuhuasworkshop8702 Plus didnt Sakura say she didn't want to continue being an idol after izone? I dont see her joining bighit unless she joins under some other company under Hybe Labels.
This may be unpopular, but if IZONE were to disband, I would want Yena in Everglow. First, I think she would fit the concept really well. Have you seen her dance covers, she would do so well. Second, I love Everglow as a group and it would be easier for me to support her after. I would support her no matter what because she is my bias, but stanning a group as a whole is a different story. I would rather her be in a group where I already love the members than a new group I have to learn. Just thinking about her dynamics with the other members excites me, especially more Sihyeon and Yiren interactions.
I believe that when they participated on the show they already sort of knew that even if any of them won they would still debut as Everglow. Like some sort of pre-debut promotion. Or else it wouldn't make sense of Yue Ha to send specifically Yiren, Yena and Sihyun
Update: A week ago Yujin & Wonyoung has successfully re-debuted with Starship's new Girl Group IVE, I hope that other members will also re-debut with other groups
my biggest wish is that miss all rounder chaeyeon becomes super successful after disbandment. i of course want all girls to do well, but chaeyeon is such a shining star. if she debuted solo, i could see her kind of following chunghas path.
I expect Yena to join Everglow and maybe one member solo. But to be honest, having them still as a group would be best but the point of the group was they are temporary
@@KpopNiDontStop Honestly I want izone to stay together but since it won't happen, the next best thing is Yena joining an already well-established group because they'll both benefit from it. Also, Yena takes everything she touches to the top. She's not called the ace for nothing.
Everglow is literally celebrating their second anniversary this year, not sure why they’d add another member , but I also see how Yena would boost their popularity
@@edennn18 It is a bit odd but there are tons of things that point towards it. Like their dance formations always leaving space for one member. Although I gotta agree that if izone extends their contract then it likely won't happen anymore.
The fact that after IOI disbanded i said that i won't like another produce group, yet i fell in love with these girls, says much. I really don't want them to end, I really want Iz*One to become permanent. I haven't watched the produce series, but when they debuted, i was there and loved it. Two years flew so fast. When SSOTS was realeased, i said it loud .... I'M WIZ*ONE then i realized, it's almost over. Oh and Sakura being my bias won't ease my pain, because i'm sure i won't see her again. I really hope all the girls will be succesful. I'm just sad that i couldn't met them in real life, but to become Wiz*One was my best decision.
@@ariyoshikyowakoku1045 Its not the same you know. I don't really watch these '' produce '' shows , and it is being an Japanese doesn't help it. Don't get me wrong, i have no problem with Japan, but other then anime, i don't really watch anything from JP. Tho if the rumors are true, Sakura will sign up with BigHit, so she might stay in Korea after all :)
@@K-PopGamesWithSoulMirae Personally I really fell in love with AKB bc of Produce48! And there's a lot of good quality shows translated in English! It can seem weird compared to Korean content, but I assure you it's really good! And even more when your bias is there hahaha. Other than that, I don't think Sakura will return to HKT lol at least not for a long time. As you said, she might very well end up with BigHit or any other important K-Pop agency ^^
I want them to continue as a group, and I really hope they do continue, but I think it's important to remember that even if they disband, they'll still be out there doing stuff. You can still support them.
im an izone ult hence my username lmao and no group has ever made me as happy as them but people gotta face the fact they will never become pernament. minju and hyewon didnt wanna be idols they were forced to go on produce by their companys. j-line miss their groups in japan they always talk about them and it would also be a big loss to japan to loose them. even if iz*one continued they will definitely be without j-line. everglow also leaves spots for yena in their mvs and it would be a BIG deal for them in korea if she debuted their sales and popularity would rise so high. Its also dangerous to keep them a group because of the controversy of the lineup and also bc of the produce legacy. no matter how much i love these girls i just dont see anything happening. they deserve an extension tho so they can do things they werent able to do bc of covid
@@ggstan2439 she did t wanna be an idol tho she joined to be a model and was forced into the idol life by her company which is common with actors/models like jisoo from bp
@@user-rt8xr6yf2x I didn't heard anything about it, I know she have her background as actress but she also have a background as trainee. Minju has too much passion of improve, she would nevere train that hard if she didn't like what she does. Also people's mind always change, even if on the past Minju wanted to become an actress she might actually like being an idol.
@@ggstan2439 she has a passion to improve bc she and hyewon recieved massive amounts of hate for not being “talented” enough and for their positions in izone. model or idol i will support minju in whatever she does and if modelling or being an idol is where she is happiest then she should follow the path she chooses
@@user-rt8xr6yf2x She traine hard since produce, at the first moment she knew she was not at the others level she tried to improve. Actually we can see the fruits of her hardwork.
A little correction, Honda Hitomi is originally from Team 8, which is like a group within a group where this team was created by the collaboration of AKB48 and Toyota to create a team that consists of 47 members. Each member represents their prefecture, and Hitomi represents Tochigi
watching this after all the members redebuted i smiled thinking about how sakura graduated from hkt48 and redebuted as a le sserafim member instead alongside chaewon and that chaeyeon went solo
As a new K-pop Stan, izone is the first temporary group I stanned and I love them and their music so much... Them disbanding will probably leave me scarred to Stan any other temp group because of the pain you should go through knowing that your favourite group will disband exactly on this date 😭😭
I don't want permanent...I want an extension so they could say goodbye....I'm an akb48 fan and have been following the j line for years...I want them all to be happy...I love their music and I love all the girls
honestly I don't understand y'all not wanting yena to be in everglow. she was already in the planned lineup, that's why she went to produce48 like yiren and sihyeon to gain popularity for everglow, winning for them is just a plus point, which yena was able to get a plus point. If you are gonna say that they/ she will get hate, you are the one who is doing it for no reason. yena and everglow trained together and have the best bond, yena even sent a truck for everglow's comeback la di da, they wouldn't have any problems being in a group. You shouldn't mind if she joins everglow or goes solo. I'm also saying this because many of you disrespect everglow / bring down everglow by saying they are untalented, etc. You are the one creating hate, there is supposed to be no actual hate. ace mia main vocal and main dancer is there, everglow and yena is equally talented.
Agree.. i dont care about this produce curse.. yena will not overshadow the others.. i believe that the other companies know what to do now learning from the mistakes of the companies of I.O.I members
Ikr!! As a forever, I’m literally waiting for her to join the group! Whatever people are saying if it has to happen it will! Everglow are already making their name for themselves and Yena would be a great addition.I understand that people are sad about the disbandment but everybody knows that Izone was made to be a temporary group
Yes I am actually excited for Yena's future. I'd love it if she'd go solo. But Yena is someone who prefers to be in a group and why not Everglow. She trained for years with their members, so chemistry is no problem. I don't stan Everglow but I am a casual listener and honestly their songs are amazing. If Yena were to be added, the group could try out other music genres as well. Like maybe something with more of a sommer vibe.
THANK U, Yena is meant to be with everglow if wizone want that or not idc, and she will return to her original group soon 💕 fans not wanting her to join eg are just selfish, yena said it herself that sihyeon and yiren are like family to her do you know how strong their bond must be to say smth like this?? she will be just fine it everglow, the girls love and cherish her, majority forevers would welcome her and be happy it‘s a win win situation 😁
IMO Wonyoung - New GG of Starship Sakura - HKT48 Yuri - Solo singer, singing ballads and OST until a new girl group is formed Yena - Solo, EVERGLOW(?) Yujin - New GG with Wonyoung Nako - HKT48 Eunbi - Solo Hyewon - Modeling, CF, Acting, *wouldn’t be surprised if she makes a Mukbang channel on YT lol* Hitomi - AKB48 Chaewon - Solo singer like Yuri until a new GG is formed Minju - Definitely Acting, Modeling, CF Chaeyeon - Definitely solo
My thoughts Eunbi - probably go solo or still with woolim not as an entertainer but part of productions Sakura - sashihara's successor as queen of hkt or go back to japan graduates and debut as an actress Hyewon - model or sign different entertainment for cf purposes Yena - everglow's fotg Chaewon - will be added to rocketpunch Chaeyeon - ggumnamu's leader Minju - will debut as an actress Nako - go back to japan hkt or relagated to other akb group depending on what team tanaka miku falls Hitomi - to sign with starship ent form gg with wony and yujin Yuri - to go solo or sign bigger labels to join a group Yujin/Wonyoung - to join starship new gg with hitomi
Back when produce 48 ended and izone debuted, i told myself "don't stan them because you will become attached and cry when they disband." Then i listened to Heart*IZ and fell in love with them
@@bl4ckbunny086 because BigHit (bts and txt only) is only for boys but HYBE labels (including the other compagny bighit buyed) might start accepting girls or might not which is more probable so she might be able to join HYBE Japan since she’s Japanese
If Yena joined Everglow, I’d be pumped as foooook! So many girls to stan there! And I’d be also happy if Yuri debuted in a new girl group with Sian! 😭😭😭💜
if im not mistaken sian is in happy face ent rn or known as dreamcatcher company something like that. the company that manage dreamcatcher and rumor they will debut a new gg
Personnally my bias is Chaeyoung and I wish she can continue her career as a solo or in a group I don’t care I just want to see her stay in the kpop industry because I love her so much and she is really talented so I hope and I will see
And this is what happened a Year after they disband: Wonyoung and Yujin - Debuted with IVE Sakura and Chaewon - Debuted with Le Sserafim Yuri - Debuted Solo and it will make acting debut in the web drama series "Mimicus". Yena - Doing Variety Shows and later debuted Solo Nako - Returned to HKT48 Eunbi - Debuted Solo and achieving some success Hyewon - Debuted Solo and it will be debuting as an Actress or as an Model soon. Hitomi - Returned to AKB48 Minju - Continuation of her career as an Actress and as a MC of Show Music Core, and she will be the leading lady in an MBC Drama soon. Chaeyeon - She will be likely retiring in the Idol Life anytime soon since people has no signs of her redebut and she will continue as a Dancer and she will establish a Dance School someday.
Sakura is my bias, I've followed her in HKT48/AKB48 for about 6 years since when I first discovered the groups. As Jpop fans know, the 48 Group members are known as "Idols You Can Meet" and in April 2018 while I was visiting Japan I met Sakura at an event in Yokohama just before Produce 48 started, she was a little quiet but very nice. (BTW great channel Nathan, I've just discovered you and I've subscribed!)
Update: Eunbi is confirmed to go solo. Yuri And Hyewon has been seen on the August issue in elle korea as the cover of the magazine. Sakura has officially left HKT48. Every single IZ*ONE member has opened up their Instagram account. The PUP project has officially ended, there will be no chance of IZ*ONE re-debuting:(
My bias is Sakura!! I don't worry that much about the path that Sakura takes after disbandment since she already have a solid fanbase and I know I can still see her after but maybe not as frequent in Iz*one since jpop contents are quite hard to access. For Iz*one as a group, I honestly and earnestly wish for an extension since I feel like them disbanding without proper farewell to their fans (like an actual concert not online) is too painful..at least let them extend for one year since many wiz*ones are still hoping to actually meet and see them as 12.
Hitomi is both team 8/B which is the only flaw I find J-pop wise but I'm really happy you did your research on 48g I haven't really seen that from K-pop RUclipsrs so far Since I am originally from 48g fandom I would like they have a contract extension, because of obvious reasons but I really wish 48g get their members back soon.
It’s so hard for them, theres so many ppl from produce groups who don’t get the right recognition. Also imma miss Hitomi, Sakura and Nako because they are in Japanese groups. It’s so hard to get ahold of Japanese tv or content outside of Japan itself :((
I Think for Sakura and Nako, it is a given that they would return as their fame in the Japan is already big even before they going to PD48. On other hand, Hitomi is different. She is not a front row member or even a management choice, it make sense if she come back to AKB48 but also bit better if she is stay at Korea; especially if the news of 48 Korean branch is true.
Tbh, I'm happy for Yena debuting solo (SMILEY album is a masterpiece), but kinda disappointed she didn't join everglow 😅 For Yujin and Wonyoung it was obvious they gonna debut under new Starship group and we can say Starship ate it and left no crumbs, IVE is now probably the biggest 4th Gen girl group I was really surprised about Sakura and Chaewon, I expected Sakura to go back to HKT48 but then out of nowhere she's in LE SSERAFIM, with Chaewon I expected her to join Rocket Punch since it was the most obvious option back then but I'm happy where she is now For Minju and Hyewon I expected for both the same thing, modeling, acting and debut in a group or a solo Eunbi, I didn't want her to join Rocket Punch so I'm happy she debuted solo, she's doing amazing and I don't think so there would be anything better for her For Nako and Hitomi I also expected the same thing for both, they are back to HKT48 and AKB48 which was the right call I'm kinda disappointed about Chaeyeon, I expected her to debut with WM new girl group or go solo but so far nothing has happened...
I think yena will join everglow since theres a rumor spreading that the reason behind Mia having lots of line in their songs was meant to be taken by yena.
I think Mia got a lot of lines because her vocals are more flexible than the other members tbh. But I do see Yena joining EVERGLOW as their 2nd lead vocalist alongside Sihyun
@DT EDITS 7 Everglow ot6 only why not? It depends on the company's decision. Either the company has another gg to debut or Yena will leave the company to join another group. That's the three possibilities
@So What Here's the thing, these groups were mishandled by the companies, only giving activities to Sejeong and Mina while gugudan as a group didn't do anything and even to other groups. Another point is, there's a reason why they were chosen as produce members, talent + personality would get you anywhere as is the case with Yoojung, I'll even say that even without Produce Yoojung is still gonna be the most popular. Lastly, what about WJSN? Did Yeonjung overshadowed her members? No. Only those who followed produce would say Yeonjung's the most popular, but the truth is she's in the upper middle as Cheng Xiao, Luda and even Bona are more popular than her. Yena joining Everglow won't overshadow the members, it all depends on what the company will do.
I'm gonna say this for all of Chaeyeon doubters, WM produces really good groups that you won't feel this boy/girl and friensds. People are already calling the group that Chaeyeon will be placed in just "Chaeyeon and Friends" and she should just debut as soloist. But WM is producing a group that can match or even outmatch Chaeyeon in terms of dancing. You can see videos in yt of Chaeyeon and her co-trainees like in perfect sync.
I'm honestly scared for IZ*ONE members after they disband. Some of them, like Yena and Chaeyeon, seem to have a plan ahead of them put in place by their companies but the others, especially from the smaller companies like Blockberry creative and urban works, who don't seem to be ready to debut any groups. Hopefully they would be able to debut solo or start off in another company, but I don't want this to turn out like IOI and I am afraid of certain members being left in the dust afterwards

What up everyone! This topic was voted on by you all over on my RUclips community page! What do you think? Will IZ*ONE resign? And if not where do you think the members will go??
ONG U NOTICED MY ILYYU
I hope they continue because I think one of the members won't debut for another 2 years if they disband. Like Somi she waited 3 years until she changed copanys and debuted.
I hope they extend for atleast 2 yrs more
Koreans for trump!!
I don’t know why wizones even want izone to be perm. yall knew what you guys got into when stanning a produce 101 group. They were always supposed to disband and never supposed to be perm. It has nothing to do with the success of IZONE because if that were the case they would already be a permanent group, it all comes down to the company’s wanting their idols back because keeping them as Izone doesn’t help their respective labels AT ALL. Bottom line their labels want money and them staying as Izone doesn’t help them. Stop saying “Izone Permanent!!!!!” because you sound delu it’s NEVER gonna happen.
Chaeyeon is like the Chungha of Iz*one, she's too talented so it's not okay to debut her with a group again. She's perfect to be a talented because my gurl can slay every aspect of the word 'talent'
@gucci there's a rumor that she's going to be in a group with Chaewon, or they will join Rocket Punch so it's impossible for her to be a soloist.
@gucci I respect your opinion but for me, she's beyond ready to be a soloist.
ps. your english is fine😊
She would kinda be overshadowed as a soloist she will be competing with way more popular ggs and boy groups and soloist like sunmi,hyuna,chungha too me she wlill definitely be better in a group
I think her company is preparing her debut as a leader of a gg and I actually read somewhere that it was supposed to be in the first half of this year?? So I'm surprised they are talking about this contract
its possible cause she's the most popular internationally alongside kkura, so i think she'll have a lot of fans to support her solo career.
Let's hope that the Produce curse doesn't attack IZ*ONE
It didn't attack them when the whole vote manipulation investigation came out like it attacked X1. IZ*ONE prevailed, X1 didn't.
they have vaccine so yeah izone permanent(or maybe they lose member because of the contract issue but still continue as an izone)
IZ*ONE is different it won't affect them
sadly it will always effect them. wizones wont be able to keep up with all 12 members and some members will be more popular than others. And some members will end up outshining their other new group members and will have alot of solo stans. its not a produce curse it is just what happens when you try something like this out.
@@user-rt8xr6yf2x true
I notice many popularity rank and this is mess
I just want to see Chaeyon go solo honestly. I think she’d thrive as a solo artist.
Same sentiment!my concern is for chaeyeon go solo or just be promoted even better.
Just like what chungha did. She doing super fine after the disbandment.
I know that Chaeyeon got our back. She has many international fans and that would help her group or when she goes solo. However I don’t know how popular she is in Korea and I’m afraid she won’t be successful
@KEY i think in wannaone, only daniel (and maybe minhyun) is doing well. Besides only daehwi minhyun and jinyoung is in a group postdisbandment so your point is invalid. Also its hard to compare boy groups to gg since bg are naturally more popular and wellliked by fans and the public.
@KEY keep in mind that ioi was just as big as izone *in their times* if not bigger (since kpop was smaller back then and they were the first produce group). Somi was literally the most popular female idol back then n they also had huge fanbase. However, after they went back to their respective groups and companies postdisbandment, they immediately lost their popularity. They still had some hype but once they did not maintain the standards (only chungha did), their hype just started fading and even the solo stans and ex-ioi fans did not fully support every member. The same thing happen for wannaone. This shows that most of the fans would only support them when theyre in the group. So what makes you think it wouldnt happen to izone? Plus, the individual popularity in izone is also very divided. The most popular being wonyoung/sakura (plus maybe the jline too since they have their own japanese fanbase) while the rest of the members arent really popular individually.
This is very accurate. Yujin and Wonyoung debuted in IVE and they already have 14 wins as far as I watched. I'm addicted to their song "Eleven". I like Wonyoung but Yujin is my bias.

@@bread3987 its a maybe , its not sure yet
@@yerinbaekscandlelight At least with an extension they might get the chance to see their fans in a live concert before they disband. Seeing them end without a proper farewell hurts even more :(
Agreed, if they really are going to disband as the way it should be in the next month or two, imo it probably wouldn't be fair for the members tho. The 3 months of hiatus and now COVID (and the virus is still ongoing, plus they say there's a new type of it from the UK). Ofc some will say "But what if the hiatus and the Covid weren't here in the first place, u sure u wanna stick to them on getting contract extension?" Well, maybe. But look on the reality now, what's happening? The fact that those two awful things has happened and there is still one is still happening rn and we won't even know when will it end... I'll also be grateful if they could just at least give them a year. Just one single year for them being together, and give us a more proper farewell... And also, maybe they could finish up the 'One' trilogy so everything can end up well 😔😔

@@kurtandriereyes3304 Exactly :((
Literally, Starship Entertainment is probably the only company out of all the others ones that has the highest chances to succeed if they play their cards right and treat their idols well.
@@j.r.2674 Maybe, although the company has a messy past about mistreating their idols and such.. And i really hope they don't just focus on their boy groups. But other than that, Starship has gold in their hands, it's up to them if they're going to use that to their success, i really hope they do.
@@Craashy
Yes, they do have quite the past of not testing their idols the best, they improved in regards to treating their idols, they are really good in regards to most things, they just aren’t the best at promoting their groups and artists properly though, they use the same format for every groups and it is a bit outdated. Monsta X has really been carrying their company for a while, and seeing how successful Iz*one are and the members in general are, I’m pretty sure they’ll want to be a lot of focus and attention into a new girl group, seeing how they have two of the most well-known members in Iz*one. Wonyoung and Yujin are essentially the future of their label, Starship has some good variety and groups, but I don’t really think WJSN (their current girl group) will ever be extremely successful and they’ve been around for nearly 5 years, their new boy group Cravity is doing well but it might take a while for them to pop off, Monsta X are pretty much a senior group, but their probably the only group that really has a sustained and solid fanbase. For now, I think their main focus is Monsta X, but I’m pretty sure they’ll be putting a lot of effort into making a successful girl group, that is essential for them to succeed as a company, (also I just would want Yujin and Wonyoung to succeed in a good environment in general). I hope Starship play their cards right, they have everything they need to do so, it could even help them become more of a mainstream company in the future, there is so much potential.
It literally scares me to think about their future... because I want the best for all the members and I know they have the talent and potential to succeed after izone, but sadly they could also easily end up forgotten due to bad management from their companies... let’s wish them the best and support them in whichever endeavors they take.
Honestly, I feel that a company having no money is just as scary as having bad management... they often come hand in hand as well. And as much as it pains me, when I look at it objectively, it would be nearly impossible for some of izone's members to bring in enough money to keep their respective companies afloat, regardless of management decisions. I do hope they find a way, though :(
each of them will reach sucess if the company make the right choice and promote them well. For example, if Minju and Hyewon debut with a group they will probably flop but if Minju be an actress/model and Hyewon an actress/model/youtuber they will for sure suceed.
@@ggstan2439 I agree, choosing the correct path is essential, and Minju and hyewon’s best option is to go the acting/modeling route, but I hope Minju also keeps writing/arranging songs, it’d be sad for her if she leaves behind her passion for music):
@@andrewkim9090 yeah, that’s also true):
@@ggstan2439 I don’t think 8D Creative will waste Hyewon potentials for being an idol imo. Most Real Wiz*One will definitely support her group for sure if that ever happen lol.

There's new tho that IZ*ONE members will debute to Sub Units.. I dunno if its true tho
No matter what happens, I'll support Lee Chaeyeon until the end.
Personally I've always said this to project groups, there was always supposed to be a quick end. It was never meant to last.
And its not like they'll be back to strangers after this is all over. They'll still be the same people and at least some of them will still continue to be great friends. Just because the group ends, it doesn't mean that they're nothing to each other, its just the end.
If some of them or all of them, decide to not continue or fight to be a permanent group, it doesn't mean that iz*one meant nothing to them, it's just the end.
Their moments are captured online and will be kept there forever.
Even if some of them won't continue to be friends after this is all over, they still have the memories that they share. Every day for 2 years, they'll still be there.
The entire project group wasn't just for nothing, it gave them an experience that no one else would have ever experienced before and ever again.
Ends are always bittersweet, but it's just an end. They're still be alive and well even after iz*one disbands. They'll still be here, just with new beginnings. So if you truly love them, you'd realize that the girl's feelings is what's most important. Even if that includes the end of iz*one.
IZ*ONE PERMANENT!!!

True, it will be home for Yena when she joins EVERGLOW.

@Mia biased Forever Me too i think so she will join everglow after this comeback. Let's see. Everglow forever let's go!!!!
i won’t be surprised of hyewon enters the modeling industry - i mean, she has the visuals to do it. i think 8D Creative will try to place her in the modeling industry to earn some cash all while planning on what do with her future. i can also see hyewon becoming a streamer. imagine hyewon becoming a mukbang streamer - since 8D Creative started out as a food and drink company and her love for food- or a gaming streamer, since she loves games as well. i’m curious about her the most.
Also wouldn't be surprised if they push her to be an actor as well
Not sure but I think 8D made her join the survival show and hoping she'll make it (and she did) so that there'll be a boost for her exposure.
i would agree with this but for actor i dont really know her well whether shes good in a ting or not
About Sakura. She has 3 ways to go:
1. Graduate and become an actress.
2. Top position in AKS and management later.
3. Graduate and stay in Korea (if she gets an invitation to any company considering her being the most popular member worldwide).
But recently she hasn’t stated that she’ll definitely come back to Japan (only allkpop and koreaboo spread such rumors).
I have to agree with these
My thoughts:
1. Sashi's successor on being the queen of HKT
2. Graduates and take a break on entertainment industry
3. Graduates and be either actress or voice actress

Yena is my favorite. Watching her in that Mafia Tv Show was great!
Update: A week ago Yujin & Wonyoung has successfully re-debuted with Starship's new Girl Group IVE, I hope that other members will also re-debut with other groups
watching this in 2024 is kinda weird
my biggest wish is that miss all rounder chaeyeon becomes super successful after disbandment. i of course want all girls to do well, but chaeyeon is such a shining star. if she debuted solo, i could see her kind of following chunghas path.
Same. I want Chaeyeon debuts solist 😭😭😭
I think she will debut in a band and actually be the leader: kprofiles.com/ggumnamu-members-profile/
I expect Yena to join Everglow and maybe one member solo. But to be honest, having them still as a group would be best but the point of the group was they are temporary
I hope Yena takes Everglow to the top!!
Her with Shihyeon and Yiren could probably make a 48's subunit
@@KpopNiDontStop Honestly I want izone to stay together but since it won't happen, the next best thing is Yena joining an already well-established group because they'll both benefit from it. Also, Yena takes everything she touches to the top. She's not called the ace for nothing.
Everglow is literally celebrating their second anniversary this year, not sure why they’d add another member , but I also see how Yena would boost their popularity
@@edennn18 It is a bit odd but there are tons of things that point towards it. Like their dance formations always leaving space for one member. Although I gotta agree that if izone extends their contract then it likely won't happen anymore.

I don’t know, I love Izone, I only wish the best for the members
The fact that after IOI disbanded i said that i won't like another produce group, yet i fell in love with these girls, says much. I really don't want them to end, I really want Iz*One to become permanent.
I haven't watched the produce series, but when they debuted, i was there and loved it. Two years flew so fast. When SSOTS was realeased, i said it loud .... I'M WIZ*ONE then i realized, it's almost over. Oh and Sakura being my bias won't ease my pain, because i'm sure i won't see her again. I really hope all the girls will be succesful.
I'm just sad that i couldn't met them in real life, but to become Wiz*One was my best decision.
I really really wish I could have seen them live in concert before my eyes at least once in my life 🥲🥲
why would you not see her again ? there's ton of AKB content on the web!
@@ariyoshikyowakoku1045 Its not the same you know. I don't really watch these '' produce '' shows , and it is being an Japanese doesn't help it. Don't get me wrong, i have no problem with Japan, but other then anime, i don't really watch anything from JP. Tho if the rumors are true, Sakura will sign up with BigHit, so she might stay in Korea after all :)
@@K-PopGamesWithSoulMirae Personally I really fell in love with AKB bc of Produce48! And there's a lot of good quality shows translated in English! It can seem weird compared to Korean content, but I assure you it's really good! And even more when your bias is there hahaha. Other than that, I don't think Sakura will return to HKT lol at least not for a long time. As you said, she might very well end up with BigHit or any other important K-Pop agency ^^
As a forever I'm so excited that YENA will join Everglow!! I'm OT7 already
@DT EDITS 7 Everglow ot6 only
Can you stop.
We didn't even know if yena would join everglow.
If she would,then wake up.
That's the reality.
Same!!!!
@DT EDITS 7 Everglow ot6 only go d!3
@Michayle Jaftha i do not care 😋
Same
Sakura is my bias too. She isn't the best singer but definitely is a great performer.
Sakura is HKT48 member, her concurrent position in AKB48 ended already before she joined PD48.
I want i*zone to continue, of course and my bias is hitomi.
Hii-chan.
Hiiichan
is iz*one :)
I want them to continue as a group, and I really hope they do continue, but I think it's important to remember that even if they disband, they'll still be out there doing stuff. You can still support them.
im an izone ult hence my username lmao and no group has ever made me as happy as them but people gotta face the fact they will never become pernament. minju and hyewon didnt wanna be idols they were forced to go on produce by their companys. j-line miss their groups in japan they always talk about them and it would also be a big loss to japan to loose them. even if iz*one continued they will definitely be without j-line. everglow also leaves spots for yena in their mvs and it would be a BIG deal for them in korea if she debuted their sales and popularity would rise so high. Its also dangerous to keep them a group because of the controversy of the lineup and also bc of the produce legacy. no matter how much i love these girls i just dont see anything happening. they deserve an extension tho so they can do things they werent able to do bc of covid
Minju was trained as idol too tho she have pre-debut singing and dancing covers and appearences.
@@ggstan2439 she did t wanna be an idol tho she joined to be a model and was forced into the idol life by her company which is common with actors/models like jisoo from bp

I didn't heard anything about it, I know she have her background as actress but she also have a background as trainee.
Minju has too much passion of improve, she would nevere train that hard if she didn't like what she does.
Also people's mind always change, even if on the past Minju wanted to become an actress she might actually like being an idol.
@@ggstan2439 she has a passion to improve bc she and hyewon recieved massive amounts of hate for not being “talented” enough and for their positions in izone. model or idol i will support minju in whatever she does and if modelling or being an idol is where she is happiest then she should follow the path she chooses
@@user-rt8xr6yf2x She traine hard since produce, at the first moment she knew she was not at the others level she tried to improve. Actually we can see the fruits of her hardwork.

Sakura and Chaewon was a big twist in Le Sseraffim
Wonyoung and YuJin are already expected to debut together
i mean we forevers will happily welcome yena as a member of everglow fOrEvEr LeTs gO!!
theyre so young, they have a whole bright future ahead, but pls dont disband so early :(
2.5years
The sad part of the J line going back to Japan is Hitomi wont see Sakura and Nako that much since she lives like 15 hours away from them.
IZONE PERMANENT IN MY HEART.

It would be amazing if Yena joined Everglow. Because Shiyeon and Yiren were both on Produce 48 too.
I really wish IZONE the best future. I don’t want them like I.O.I cause only a few members are successful 😪
A little correction, Honda Hitomi is originally from Team 8, which is like a group within a group where this team was created by the collaboration of AKB48 and Toyota to create a team that consists of 47 members. Each member represents their prefecture, and Hitomi represents Tochigi
IZ*ONE 4TH GEN GG LEADERS! THEY DESERVE TO EXTENSIONS FOR THEIR CONTRACTS!!! IZ*ONE PERMANENT!!!
its not about deserving, its like the video says, companies want to CASH in on the members success.

As a new K-pop Stan, izone is the first temporary group I stanned and I love them and their music so much... Them disbanding will probably leave me scarred to Stan any other temp group because of the pain you should go through knowing that your favourite group will disband exactly on this date 😭😭
I don't want permanent...I want an extension so they could say goodbye....I'm an akb48 fan and have been following the j line for years...I want them all to be happy...I love their music and I love all the girls

honestly I don't understand y'all not wanting yena to be in everglow. she was already in the planned lineup, that's why she went to produce48 like yiren and sihyeon to gain popularity for everglow, winning for them is just a plus point, which yena was able to get a plus point. If you are gonna say that they/ she will get hate, you are the one who is doing it for no reason. yena and everglow trained together and have the best bond, yena even sent a truck for everglow's comeback la di da, they wouldn't have any problems being in a group. You shouldn't mind if she joins everglow or goes solo. I'm also saying this because many of you disrespect everglow / bring down everglow by saying they are untalented, etc. You are the one creating hate, there is supposed to be no actual hate. ace mia main vocal and main dancer is there, everglow and yena is equally talented.
Agree.. i dont care about this produce curse.. yena will not overshadow the others.. i believe that the other companies know what to do now learning from the mistakes of the companies of I.O.I members
Ikr!! As a forever, I’m literally waiting for her to join the group! Whatever people are saying if it has to happen it will! Everglow are already making their name for themselves and Yena would be a great addition.I understand that people are sad about the disbandment but everybody knows that Izone was made to be a temporary group
LOUDER
Yes I am actually excited for Yena's future. I'd love it if she'd go solo. But Yena is someone who prefers to be in a group and why not Everglow. She trained for years with their members, so chemistry is no problem.
I don't stan Everglow but I am a casual listener and honestly their songs are amazing.
If Yena were to be added, the group could try out other music genres as well. Like maybe something with more of a sommer vibe.
THANK U, Yena is meant to be with everglow if wizone want that or not idc, and she will return to her original group soon 💕 fans not wanting her to join eg are just selfish, yena said it herself that sihyeon and yiren are like family to her do you know how strong their bond must be to say smth like this?? she will be just fine it everglow, the girls love and cherish her, majority forevers would welcome her and be happy it‘s a win win situation 😁
IZ*ONE is officially disbanding, I’m literally so sad they are one of my favs
@Mia biased Forever it has failed sadly
I wish Nako and Hitomi signs to a Korean label to debut in groups like Juri from Rocket Punch did
IMO
Wonyoung - New GG of Starship
Sakura - HKT48
Yuri - Solo singer, singing ballads and OST until a new girl group is formed
Yena - Solo, EVERGLOW(?)
Yujin - New GG with Wonyoung
Nako - HKT48
Eunbi - Solo
Hyewon - Modeling, CF, Acting, *wouldn’t be surprised if she makes a Mukbang channel on YT lol*
Hitomi - AKB48
Chaewon - Solo singer like Yuri until a new GG is formed
Minju - Definitely Acting, Modeling, CF
Chaeyeon - Definitely solo
Chaeyon could be in a group too
we need hyewon to have a yt channel LMAO
Group for chaeyeon
Eunbi doesn't have a chance to be in new group? Kinda sad, is it cause her age? :(
My thoughts
Eunbi - probably go solo or still with woolim not as an entertainer but part of productions
Sakura - sashihara's successor as queen of hkt or go back to japan graduates and debut as an actress
Hyewon - model or sign different entertainment for cf purposes
Yena - everglow's fotg
Chaewon - will be added to rocketpunch
Chaeyeon - ggumnamu's leader
Minju - will debut as an actress
Nako - go back to japan hkt or relagated to other akb group depending on what team tanaka miku falls
Hitomi - to sign with starship ent form gg with wony and yujin
Yuri - to go solo or sign bigger labels to join a group
Yujin/Wonyoung - to join starship new gg with hitomi
Back when produce 48 ended and izone debuted, i told myself "don't stan them because you will become attached and cry when they disband."
Then i listened to Heart*IZ and fell in love with them

My IZ*One bias is Sakura as well 😊
And this is what happened a Year after they disband:
Wonyoung and Yujin - Debuted with IVE
Sakura and Chaewon - Debuted with Le Sserafim
Yuri - Debuted Solo and it will make acting debut in the web drama series "Mimicus".
Yena - Doing Variety Shows and later debuted Solo
Nako - Returned to HKT48
Eunbi - Debuted Solo and achieving some success
Hyewon - Debuted Solo and it will be debuting as an Actress or as an Model soon.
Hitomi - Returned to AKB48
Minju - Continuation of her career as an Actress and as a MC of Show Music Core, and she will be the leading lady in an MBC Drama soon.
Chaeyeon - She will be likely retiring in the Idol Life anytime soon since people has no signs of her redebut and she will continue as a Dancer and she will establish a Dance School someday.
WM ent.'s Ggumnamu(Dream Tree) a trainee group which Chaeyeon is part of is waiting for her to come back so that they could debut a new gg.
Chaeyeon idk how to spell her name but she already has a group she’s in and maybe Yena might join everglow
Yea it’s called WM girls for now and it seems like it’s a 6 member group
I always said it, wizone must accept the reality and support izone members even after disband.
Sakura is my bias, I've followed her in HKT48/AKB48 for about 6 years since when I first discovered the groups. As Jpop fans know, the 48 Group members are known as "Idols You Can Meet" and in April 2018 while I was visiting Japan I met Sakura at an event in Yokohama just before Produce 48 started, she was a little quiet but very nice. (BTW great channel Nathan, I've just discovered you and I've subscribed!)
Update:
Eunbi is confirmed to go solo.
Yuri And Hyewon has been seen on the August issue in elle korea as the cover of the magazine.
Sakura has officially left HKT48.
Every single IZ*ONE member has opened up their Instagram account.
The PUP project has officially ended, there will be no chance of IZ*ONE re-debuting:(
Sakura is joining Bighit Now!!
WAIT RLLY
BUT SHE DIDNT GRADUATE AT HKT48 YET
@@swithly8717 well wait till April after izone disband all things can be clear!
My bias is Sakura!! I don't worry that much about the path that Sakura takes after disbandment since she already have a solid fanbase and I know I can still see her after but maybe not as frequent in Iz*one since jpop contents are quite hard to access. For Iz*one as a group, I honestly and earnestly wish for an extension since I feel like them disbanding without proper farewell to their fans (like an actual concert not online) is too painful..at least let them extend for one year since many wiz*ones are still hoping to actually meet and see them as 12.
Hitomi is both team 8/B which is the only flaw I find J-pop wise but I'm really happy you did your research on 48g I haven't really seen that from K-pop RUclipsrs so far
Since I am originally from 48g fandom I would like they have a contract extension, because of obvious reasons but I really wish 48g get their members back soon.
I really really hope the best for Chaeyeon! I hope she becomes an established artist in a good company
I'd like Chaeyeon to go solo but I think she would also become a great leader. Omg😳
The most successful 4th Kpop generation! IZ*ONE
It’s so hard for them, theres so many ppl from produce groups who don’t get the right recognition. Also imma miss Hitomi, Sakura and Nako because they are in Japanese groups. It’s so hard to get ahold of Japanese tv or content outside of Japan itself :((
I miss j line in akb48, but I will def miss them too in izone
IZ*ONE FOREVER!!!
I Think for Sakura and Nako, it is a given that they would return as their fame in the Japan is already big even before they going to PD48. On other hand, Hitomi is different. She is not a front row member or even a management choice, it make sense if she come back to AKB48 but also bit better if she is stay at Korea; especially if the news of 48 Korean branch is true.
I don't want them to end 😭😭😭
Tbh, I'm happy for Yena debuting solo (SMILEY album is a masterpiece), but kinda disappointed she didn't join everglow 😅
For Yujin and Wonyoung it was obvious they gonna debut under new Starship group and we can say Starship ate it and left no crumbs, IVE is now probably the biggest 4th Gen girl group
I was really surprised about Sakura and Chaewon, I expected Sakura to go back to HKT48 but then out of nowhere she's in LE SSERAFIM, with Chaewon I expected her to join Rocket Punch since it was the most obvious option back then but I'm happy where she is now
For Minju and Hyewon I expected for both the same thing, modeling, acting and debut in a group or a solo
Eunbi, I didn't want her to join Rocket Punch so I'm happy she debuted solo, she's doing amazing and I don't think so there would be anything better for her
For Nako and Hitomi I also expected the same thing for both, they are back to HKT48 and AKB48 which was the right call
I'm kinda disappointed about Chaeyeon, I expected her to debut with WM new girl group or go solo but so far nothing has happened...
Turned out Sakura joined BigHit Labels...

@@rnrbb6513 I hope starship will put them on a 4-5 member gg , so what happened to mina and seojong wil not happen to them

I think yena will join everglow since theres a rumor spreading that the reason behind Mia having lots of line in their songs was meant to be taken by yena.
I think Mia got a lot of lines because her vocals are more flexible than the other members tbh. But I do see Yena joining EVERGLOW as their 2nd lead vocalist alongside Sihyun
@DT EDITS 7 Everglow ot6 only why not? It depends on the company's decision. Either the company has another gg to debut or Yena will leave the company to join another group. That's the three possibilities
@So What Here's the thing, these groups were mishandled by the companies, only giving activities to Sejeong and Mina while gugudan as a group didn't do anything and even to other groups. Another point is, there's a reason why they were chosen as produce members, talent + personality would get you anywhere as is the case with Yoojung, I'll even say that even without Produce Yoojung is still gonna be the most popular. Lastly, what about WJSN? Did Yeonjung overshadowed her members? No. Only those who followed produce would say Yeonjung's the most popular, but the truth is she's in the upper middle as Cheng Xiao, Luda and even Bona are more popular than her. Yena joining Everglow won't overshadow the members, it all depends on what the company will do.
Thank god pledis is not in charge of any of these girls...
GOD THAT’D BE TERRIBLE WE DO NOT NEED A PRISTIN PT2( pristins an amazing group i am referring to the mistreatment)
cuz Kaeun
I'm gonna say this for all of Chaeyeon doubters, WM produces really good groups that you won't feel this boy/girl and friensds. People are already calling the group that Chaeyeon will be placed in just "Chaeyeon and Friends" and she should just debut as soloist. But WM is producing a group that can match or even outmatch Chaeyeon in terms of dancing. You can see videos in yt of Chaeyeon and her co-trainees like in perfect sync.
I'm honestly scared for IZ*ONE members after they disband. Some of them, like Yena and Chaeyeon, seem to have a plan ahead of them put in place by their companies but the others, especially from the smaller companies like Blockberry creative and urban works, who don't seem to be ready to debut any groups. Hopefully they would be able to debut solo or start off in another company, but I don't want this to turn out like IOI and I am afraid of certain members being left in the dust afterwards
